Everything from start to finish was great. Mike got in touch with me on WhatsApp and gave a rough price. He sent somebody out within a couple days to come and have a look for an exact quote and managed to do it the very next day. Felix came out to do the job and he absolutely smashed it. He was very polite, friendly and did more than I originally asked for such as cleaning out my guttering and dismantling a chicken coop. He worked very hard and managed to smash a 2 man job in a day on his own. Overall a good experience with this company. They aren’t cheap, but you definitely get what you pay.Verified reviewerJob location: ST4 - MMiranda S

Reece was on time, very punctual, listened to what I wanted and as I knew nothing about what was plant and what was weed he was very knowledgable. I hired for 4 hours and have a garden waste subscription so he used my bin. Really excellent would recommend him to everyone.Verified reviewerJob location: NG8 - EElizabeth K
